Background
Construction on one or more new units reportedly began in Fall 2021.[1] The power project was planned to have between 60 and 90 MW of coal-fired capacity.[2]
An additional 90 MW of capacity appeared to be under development.[3][4]
According to the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) report accepted on Jun 29, 2022, Units 1-3 started operating in 2018, and Unit 4 started operating on Dec 2021. Unit 3, as introduced in the report, is bioenergy-fueled, and the report proposed changing Unit 3 to a coal-fired unit due to the low calorific value from bioenergy and the more developed technology of back-pressure combined heat and power. The three units (3 x 30 MW) in Phase II will utilize biogas, sludge, and slurry residue wastes, but no permission info was revealed in the EIA report.[5]
